Post readers will now be able to carry the paper in their pockets and get the latest news from the town wherever they are.

Next Wednesday the Post is launching a new mobile phone version of its website www.getreading.co.uk , which will give readers on the go the best access to news from the town.

Readers with internet access on their phones should be able to access the mobile version of the site, which has been scaled down so it is the perfect size for mobile screens and is also easier to navigate on your phone than ever before.

The mobile version of getreading means you can take us with you wherever you go and never miss the news.

Post web editor James Ashford said: “People have been able to look at getreading on their phones for a while now but this new version of the site will look better and be much easier to use.

“People will be able to keep up with the latest information from Reading’s favourite news website where ever they are, not just when they are near a computer.”

Post editor Andy Murrill said he was thrilled about the new development.

“The Post is an award-winning newspaper,” he said.

“Our website is great too and provides up-to-date news for much of Berkshire. People can submit comments and interact with other users.

“As well as breaking big exclusives on our website we also keep people up-to-date with what is happening in Reading – be it travel woes or up-to-the-minute local news and sport.”
